Lyrics

Title: “No Menu”
Verse 1
I woke up inside a body with a borrowed name
Taught what to want before I learned the game
They handed me dreams like a preset frame
Said “Pick your prize,” but they all looked the same
No manual under my skin
No map for the war within
They said “Just win” — but what’s that mean
When the scoreboard’s made of borrowed things?
Pre-Chorus
Am I chasing light
Or just better lies?
Is growth just noise
With a smarter disguise?
Chorus
We weren’t born with a menu
No list of what we’re meant to
Be, or break, or prove
Just a pulse and a point of view
So I’m digging through the echo
Trying to separate the let go
From the fear I outgrew
If I don’t know me — who do I become to?
Verse 2
Freedom tastes different when you define it
Security shifts when you redesign it
Evolution whispers “Don’t confine it”
But comfort says “Stay where you can time it”
If I build a world in my own design
Does that mean I finally crossed the line?
Or am I still just rearranging signs
Hoping the truth is hiding behind?
Pre-Chorus
Am I climbing high
Or just circling wide?
Is purpose found
Or internally designed?
Chorus
We weren’t born with a menu
No script of what we’re sent to
Chase, or praise, or lose
Just a mind we get to use
So I’m cutting through the static
Trying to turn chaos to schematic
If I can’t define the win
Maybe peace is letting myself begin
Bridge (Minimal beat, almost spoken)
What if winning isn’t louder?
What if growth is getting quieter?
What if freedom isn’t further —
But closer than the empire?
What if I’m not late —
Just early in awareness?
What if the evolution
Is learning to bear it?
Final Chorus (Expanded)
We weren’t born with a menu
No crown that we’re tied to
Just breath and the right to choose
So I’ll build what I’d like to see
In the borders around me
If I can’t control the sea
At least I can captain me
